In the Manage Users view, a Web-admin may edit a few properties for a user such as Full Name, Email, Disabled, License (optional, only visible if multiple licenses exists) and Project. If a user has not yet confirmed the Email-address, it is also possible to trigger a resend of the confirmation email from the view by clicking Resend.
All modifications to a user will be logged in the User Audit Log.
The column Active is checked if the user currently has an ongoing web-session.
To edit the role 'Web Admin' property, please refer to Manage User Roles.
Clicking on Register New User will display a form to let you enter the user information. After the user is registered, it will appear in Bold in the Manage User view on top of the list. You may continue by assigning projects (see below).
For systems which have access to a local Active Directory and a dedicated AD group configured, it is also possible to assign any user from the AD as an Aligned Elements user. Clicking on the button will display a form which allows you to select any existing AD user which is not yet already registered with the application. Active Directory users may only user their AD-password for authentication.
After the user is registered, it will appear in Bold in the Manage User view on top of the list. You may continue by assigning projects (see below).
The column Active Directory User will be visible if the system is configured in this way, you may inspect which user is using AD for authentication.
If a user has authenticated using Active Directory at any point in time, that user will always need to authenticate using this method.
To edit a user, click on the Edit button on the applicable row. Save or discard your changes afterwards.
If the email-address is modified, a new confirmation mail is automatically sent from the system to confirm the new address.
If a user no longer should receive access to the system, you may disable that user. This will block any access. In the same manner, if a disabled user need access again, just enable the user again.
Use this function to assign electronic certificates (for signatures) to a User. The assigned certificate will be propagated to all projects the user belongs to. Details on how to assign a certificate is similar to the Manage User function in the Project's Manage User setting.
If a system has more than one license available, the license for an individual user may be assigned. Select one of the available licenses to assign. Node-locked licenses can only be assigned to one single user. Floating licenses may be assigned to multiple users.
To move a Node Locked license from one user to another, contact support@aligned.ch for assistance.
It is possible to assign a user to one or more projects directly from the Manage Users view. When assigning a project, an additional selection dialog will appear to set the user group in the assigned project. If a project is unassigned, the user will be disabled for that particular project.
Clicking on Show Project Information to view to list project specific data such as Disabled in Project, Default Dashboard, Restricted by Tag or User Group assignment for each user. This is the user management data for the individual project (see Manage Users) and cannot be modified from the current view. To access the user management for an individual project, click on the Project Name when Show Project Information is enabled. This will open a new tab for the project specific User Management.
Note! your current user need to have access to the project and User management rights in the project.
To hide the Project Information, click on the Hide Project Information.
